A. at Mr. Thotmes, Law Stationer, 203, Fleet-street.' - • ' This System has since been known to the world under the -denomination of the Interrogative System; and, as opposed to some popular mechanical Systems, its Inventor has also de fined it, by way of eminence, the Thinking or Intelhictual System—trom the obligation to Think, or mentally work on the subject of study, which it imposes on the pupil ; and . frum the general improvement of the Intellectual Faculties, of which habitual mental exercise is a necessary consequence.. This Svstein, in the popular wsults published uudr the .names of Goldsmith, Blair, Barrow, Adair, &c. has been in troduced into nearly ev er y S c h oo l o f character in the British Empire, and has met with a degree of approbation far ex ceeding the original expectations of its author. The princi ple of teaching by Questions yithout , Answers, which , re quires that . the pupil should furnish answers to questi o ns, often complicated, from the scattered data of Isis hook, de manded various preparations oo the part of the tutor ; but the publication of the Tutor's Key, containing answers to above six thousand questions, has removed every difficulty in practice.

Among the competitors of the Interrogative System, the respected name of Pestalozzi has appeared ; but it might to be known that his System is precisely that to which the public attention is now invited, but which was taught in England .many years before the ❑ame of Pestalozzi in any rummer transpired. Others have annexed queitions to their hooks, and claimed kindred merit; hut, by au unhappy, misconcep tion of the principle, I he:r questions accord in amingenient exactly with the order of the data to which they refer, and therefore - afford no exercise to the intellectual faculties. Others, again, have so far mistaken the term " Interrogative System," as to obtrude on the public, under its sanction, a series of books, on the obsolete plan of questi4n and answer. While others have basely imitated hotlltite inventor's plan and his hooks, and have produced various superficial, Vulgar, and inadequate compilations, whose only recommendations have been their close imitation of his Title-pages, -Types, Ornaments, and Bindings. As a,mcans of protecting the Public against all such arti fices, and of supporting- the reputation of his series of Books, he has therefore judged it expedient to subjoin a Complete List of these Original Works:- 1.

Hot:oval:1i Slit, BEG'leave to inform you, that ever Once - the ;IL year 1790, I had been afflicted with the Lues Venereal, which, film its obstinately resisting every course of medicine prescribed by the most eminent of the faculty here, and un dergoing severalsevere courses of salivation, and twice dis charged from the Hospital with little relief, would alipear to be of the most inveterate.nature. In tie spring of last year ray disorder had got; to such a head, as nearly to put a period to my existence—l bad a large ulcer on the crown of my head, one on each arm, and 114" lets were broke out in a frightful manner ; my right was dreadfully painful, and had been in a state of ulceration for the last seven years; my left had also tlvo large nodes On it, was very much discoloured, and gave me suck'excruciating pain, particularly when warm in bed, 'as niearlyto deprive me of rest ; is this lamentable state, I was rl.commended by Mr. .1. Thompson, (who received so great a cure by them here), to take your Leahe's Patent Pills, which I began to do on the 2ath o. May; in the course of a fortnight I lieglin to receive lienek -in little More than a month the ulcers on my head and arms were soundly healed— soon atter, the sores ma my legs healed also; leaving, how ever, considerable dis co l ourat i on i n t h e s k in, and pain in the bone of the left, which, by the blessing of God, and a little longer perseverance in your invaluable Medicine, subsided ; the nodes dispersing, the skin regaining its natural hue; and the nocturnal pains gradually going off.—l thus became, by year liberal advice and medicine, perfectly free front all my former complaints—have recovered-my former spirits and strength, and - am become jolly and fat, which state having continued many months, to the astonishment of all who knew ale, I am at a loss in what te:atis to express my gratitude, but beg you, for the good of other suffering mortals, to make this my case as - public as possible, as I shall on every'occa sion ; in so doing you will greatly oblige, Sir, your grateful, obedient, very humble servant, • ALEX.

FOR THE SUN. Mu. EDITOR,--The zeal and activity with which " SCRUTATOR'' appears to- have pursued his inquiries into the abuses of THE INSOLVENT ACT, induce me to renew a task, to do justice to which 1 feel myself greatly incompetent ; and ;ball proceed, in the first place, to ; ;ive the further particulars requited by " ScturAT,oa" of the two cases subniiittu by we to the Public, and which his clear and cowprehensive explanatit'n so justly deserves. I am not sufficiently acquainted with the de. •cription of property possessed by the first of those Insolvent Debtors to speak positively of the means possessed by his creditors, to compel the delivery of it up for their benefit, but, from the style in which he lives, the length:of time he has con tinued to reside in his present situation, and other concurring circumstances, a pretty correct con. elusion may be formed, that his property is not attachable by virtue of the Bankrupt Laws. lii the other ca s ie I can speak with certainty and ac curacy. After the debtor, had withdrawn his feciird, judgment, as in the case of a nonsuit, was ntered up, and in that state the proceedings have ever since remained, without the feast notice either on the part of the debtor or his attorney : and these proceedings,. I regret to state, were carried. on by one of those who belong to and disgrace tbe legal profession ; his practice, however, is wholly confined to the Insolvent Court, with the excep 7 Lion, as in the present instance, of actions which may be produced by the malice or credulity of The . debtors, and (to wipe off the stain from the pro. 7 fession) be:sprang, I believe, ab antiqui Arpe of Insolvent Debtors' Agents. From the'explanation of " SCRUTATOR" then it plainly appears that theie are two really exist ing evils-that a debtor, to any amount, who is arrested for 3001., and whose property is not at , wettable by th e B an k ru p t Laws, .may.live at hilt ease in the rules of one of the prisons,' and hid de fiance to his creditors, and may also harass his Creditors with vexatious proceedings, while their only remedy is, to make a fort her debt of the costs which they may sustain, and thereby prolong his present mode of enjoyment, or e l se to p rove t h e connivance of the Attorney, (or which he might receive censure from the Court. 'But, because these, or even much greater evils exist, is it of• consequence that w t hey are irremediable ? and is a beneficial measure, which has proved itself in many instances capable of answering the ends for tit chi it. was designeet, to be wholly abandoned, because its provisions were not sufficiently rigid to pre vent the springing up of abuses ? If the corruptions he.not considered{ as satisfactorily manifest, let a Committee be appointed to inquire into its abuses, and I will venture to predict that every hand will be ready to point them out. IVith respect to the knowledge of the Constitu tion of the Insolvent Act, I will not certainly pretend to vie with " SCRUTATOR," but so far as my judgment is able to calculate upon consequen. ces, the omission of a Court of Appeal appears to have been highly judicious ; for the complaint against the expences incurred by the suitors iu the Insolvent Court-, where the costs are regulated according to the circumstances, is' already very great, and how much greater would it he it :.he parties were allowed to create further proceedings in a higher Court, after their cases had been de termined ? And as the execution of the Act is sup. posed to be entrusted to a man of the strictest honour and ability, whose duty is almost confined to the expounding or one particular law, the danger to he apprehended front erroneous deci sions is hardly perceptible ; especially if that firm controller of wrongs, a Jury of twelve honest men, %yene to adorn the Court and assist his judgment.
